Medical institutions, with their clinical practice foundation and abundant human use experience data, have become important carriers for the inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and the "cradles" of the preparation of new TCM. To effectively promote the transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and establish an effective evaluation index system for the transformation of new TCM conforming to the characteristics of TCM, consensus experts adopted the literature research, questionnaire survey, Delphi method, etc. By focusing on the policy and technical evaluation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions, a comprehensive evaluation from the dimensions of drug safety, efficacy, feasibility, and characteristic advantages was conducted, thus forming a comprehensive evaluation system with four primary indicators and 37 secondary indicators. The expert consensus reached aims to encourage medical institutions at all levels to continuously improve the high-quality research and development and transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and targeted at clinical needs, so as to provide a decision-making basis for the preparation, selection, cultivation, and transformation of new TCM for medical institutions, improve the development efficiency of new TCM, and precisely respond to the public medication needs.

CD47 is an immune checkpoint widely regarded as a 'don't eat me' signal. CD47-based anti-cancer therapy has received considerable attention, with a significant number of clinical trials conducted. While anti-cancer therapies based on CD47 remain a focal point of interest among researchers, it is noteworthy that an increasing number of studies have found that CD47-based therapy ameliorated the pathological status of non-cancer diseases. This review aims to provide an overview of the recent progress in comprehending the role of CD47-based therapy in non-cancer diseases, including diseases of the circulatory system, nervous system, digestive system, and so on. Furthermore, we sought to delineate the promising mechanisms of CD47-based therapy in treating non-cancer diseases. Our findings suggest that CD47-based agents may exert their effect by regulating phagocytosis, regulating T cells, dendritic cells, and neutrophils, and regulating the secretion of cytokines and chemokines. Additionally, we put forward the orientation of further research to bring to light the potential of CD47 and its binding partners as a target in non-cancer diseases.

Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), the most commonly-occurring form of hearing loss, is caused mainly by injury to or the loss of hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons in the cochlea. Numerous environmental and physiological factors have been shown to cause acquired SNHL, such as ototoxic drugs, noise exposure, aging, infections, and diseases. Several programmed cell death (PCD) pathways have been reported to be involved in SNHL, especially some novel PCD pathways that have only recently been reported, such as ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis. Here we summarize these PCD pathways and their roles and mechanisms in SNHL, aiming to provide new insights and potential therapeutic strategies for SNHL by targeting these PCD pathways.

Objectives:To analyze the risk factors of atrial fibrillation in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(NOHCM)and explore the relationship between left ventricular/atrial volume and atrial fibrillation.Methods:Consecutive NOHCM patients admitted at Fuwai Hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 with complete clinical data,satisfactory echocardiography imaging data were included in this analysis,patients were divided into atrial fibrillation group(n=28)and non-atrial fibrillation group(n=57).Left-sided volumetric and functional parameters were measured by one-beat real-time full-volume three-dimensional echocardiography,including left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV),left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left atrial volume(LAV).The left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDVi)index,left ventricular end-systolic volume index(LVESVi)and left atrial volume index(LAVi)were calculated.Other echocardiographic parameters including interventricular septum(IVSmax)thickness,left ventricular posterior wall thickness(LVPW),and left atrial diameter(LAD)were routinely measured.Mitral valve forward flow spectrum,tissue Doppler,tricuspid regurgitation velocity,and left atrial size were used to evaluate the left ventricular diastolic function of patients,and diastolic dysfunction was classified into grade I,II,and III.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of atrial fibrillation in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Results:Compared with the non-atrial fibrillation group,LVEDV([143.8±26.7]ml vs.[117.1±21.9]ml)and LVEDVi([79.4±11.9]ml/m2 vs.[64.2±10.6]ml/m2)were smaller in atrial fibrillation group(both P<0.001).Compared with the non-atrial fibrillation group,LAD([40.2±4.7]mm vs.[48.6±4.8]mm)and LAVi([37.3±8.9]ml/m2 vs.[64.4±17.1]ml/m2)were lager in atrial fibrillation group(both P<0.001).Compared with the non-atrial fibrillation group,the proportion of NYHA functional classification≥Ⅲ was higher(15.8%vs.50.0%,P<0.001),LVEF was lower([61.5±5.5]%vs.[57.6±5.0]%,P=0.002),and proportion of severe diastolic dysfunction was higher in atrial fibrillation group(P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that the factors associated with atrial fibrillation in NOHCM patients were LVEDVi(OR=0.744,95%CI:0.575-0.962,P=0.024)and LAVi(OR=1.602,95%CI:1.032-2.486,P=0.036).Conclusions:LVEDVi and LAVi are related factors for atrial fibrillation in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.LVEDVi is negatively,while LAVi is positively associated with the occurrence of atrial fibrillation in NOHCM patients.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Blood from a case of group B epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis identified in February 2024 in Ganzhou City,Jiangxi Province,and throat swabs from close contacts were collected for isolation and culture.The isolates were subjected to serogrouping,drug sensitivity testing,and whole genome sequencing and analysis,to provide a basis for epidemiological inves-tigation and clinical drug use.One strain of Neisseria meningitidis was isolated from the blood of the case and denoted group B.The MLST type was ST-7962,with no clonal group attribution.The phylogenetic tree showed that it was genetically close to the 1977 Shanghai carrier isolate(id-52231).Drug sensitivity results indicated that the strain was sensitive to 8 drugs:azithro-mycin,cefotaxime,minocycline,ceftriaxone,chloramphenicol,meropenem,rifampicin,and benzylpenicillin;resistant to cot-rimoxazole,levofloxacin,and ciprofloxacin;and showed an intermediate response to penicillin.This report describes the first case of ST-7962 group B meningoencephalitis found in Jiangxi Province.Monitoring of Neisseria meningitidis carriage,drug re-sistance,and molecular characteristics of strains in the healthy population in this region should be strengthened,to provide la-boratory support for the clinical use of medications,traceability,and control of the pathogen underlying meningoencephalitis infection.

The Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog ( KRAS ) mutation is one of the most prevalent activating alterations in cancer. It indicates a poor overall prognosis due to its highly invasive nature. Although several KRAS inhibitors have been developed in recent years, a significant clinical challenge has emerged as a substantial proportion of patients eventually develop resistance to these therapies. Therefore, identifying determinants of drug resistance is critical for guiding treatment strategies. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the mutation landscape and molecular mechanisms of KRAS activity in various cancers. Meanwhile, it summaries the progress and prospects of small molecule KRAS inhibitors undergoing clinical trials. Furthemore, this review explores potential strategies to overcome drug resistance, with the ultimate goal of steering toward patient-centric precision oncology in the foreseeable future.
