As the core vehicle for preserving and transmitting traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） academic thought and clinical experience， the establishment of a robust quality evaluation system for TCM clinical case reports is a crucial component in the current standardization and modernization of TCM. Based on the practical experience of constructing the China Clinical Cases Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， this study conducted a comprehensive analysis of critical challenges， including insufficient authenticity and unfocused evaluation criteria. It proposed a three-dimensional evaluation framework grounded in the structure-process-outcome logic， encompassing three dimensions of authenticity and standardization， characteristics and advantages， application and translational impact. This framework integrated 12 key evaluation indicators in a systematic manner. The model preserved the academic characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment， while aligning with modern scientific research standards， achieving a balance between individualized TCM experience and standardized evaluation. Concurrently， this study provided theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for evaluating the quality of TCM clinical cases， contributing significantly to the inheritance of TCM knowledge， evidence-based practice， and the reform of talent evaluation mechanisms.

Objective To explore the wearing status and actual noise reduction effect of hearing protectors among noise workers in a typical automobile manufacturing enterprise. Methods In April 2024, an occupational hazard factor testing was carried out in an automobile manufacturing industry, and at the same time, the hearing protection fit test was conducted for noise workers. Intervention and guidance were provided to those who did not pass the minimum standard of baseline PAR. The difference in PAR between baseline and post-intervention was compared, and the effectiveness of hearing protector wearing method training was evaluated. Results The exceeding rate of the company's noise operation post was 50.77% (66/130). The baseline PAR of the subjects with working experience of less than 15 years and wearing hearing protectors throughout noisy work was higher, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with those with 80dB≤L_{EX, 8h}<85dB, more research subjects with L_{EX, 8h}≥85dB failed baseline PAR (39.13%). After intervention, the PAR of the subjects who did not pass the minimum standard of baseline PRA increased from 2.0 (0.0, 5.3) to 17.0 (14.8, 20.0), and the protection level was significantly improved, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion The individual fit test of hearing protector is an important means to evaluate the actual noise reduction level of hearing protector and guide the selection of hearing protection models. Corporate training can help improve the PAR of hearing protectors.

Objective To assess the risk of hearing loss caused by occupational noise exposure in workers in an automobile manufacturing plant in Tianjin, China, and to perform risk management. Methods Occupational health field investigation and noise exposure measurements were conducted from July to December 2023, and physical examination data were collected. ISO 1999:2013(E) Acoustics-Estimation of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss and WS/T 754-2016 ^“Guidelines for Risk Management of Occupational Disease Hazards Caused by Noise^” were used to predict the risk of high-frequency hearing loss and occupational noise induced deafness for operational workers and make a risk classification. Results The noise intensity of each workshop was 79.4 to 95.5 dB(A), and the maximum noise intensity of welding and stamping exceeded the standard. The results of the assessment showed that the noise level remained unchanged, and the risk of HFHL and ONID in workers increased as the predicted age and length of service increased. It was predicted that after the age of 40, the maximum risk of hearing loss in welding workers would be high risk, and the risk of stamping workers would be at higher risk, suggesting that welding and stamping were the key control posts of noise hazards in the enterprise. The N50 prediction values of permanent hearing threshold displacement caused by potential noise at all frequencies for final assembly and painting workers were lower than the measured values. Conclusion The consequences of hearing loss for workers in the welding and stamping shop noise operations at this automobile manufacturing plant are relatively serious and require risk management.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of Tripterygium wilfordii multiglycoside （TWM） on renal injury in diabetic nephropathy （DN） rats through tumor protein p53/microRNA-214 （miR-214）/UNC-51-like kinase 1 （ULK1） axis. METHODS Male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group （n＝6） and modeling group （n＝28）； the modeling group was fed with high fat and high glucose plus intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin to establish DN model. The modeled rats were randomly divided into model group， valsartan group [8.33 mg/（kg·d）] and TWM group[6.25 mg/（kg·d）]， with 8 rats in each group. Rats in each group were gavaged with the corresponding medication or normal saline， once a day， for 6 consecutive weeks. After the last medication， liver and renal function indexes [24 h urinary total protein （24 h-UTP）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， serum creatinine （SCr）， albumin （ALB）， alanine transaminase （ALT）]， blood lipid indexes （triglycerides， total cholesterol） and blood glucose index （fasting blood glucose） in urine/blood sample of rats were detected in each group. Renal pathologic change was observed， protein and mRNA expressions of p53， ULK1， Beclin-1 and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3）， and expression of miR-214 in renal tissue were also determined. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the renal tubular epithelium of rats in the model group showed obvious edema， cell swelling， accompanied by lymphocyte infiltration； the levels of 24h-UTP， BUN， SCr， ALT and glycolipid indexes， the expressions of p53 protein and mRNA， as well as the expression of miR-214 in rats in the model group and administration groups were significantly increased or up-regulated， while ALB level， LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ， the expressions of LC3 mRNA， the expressions of ULK1， Beclin-1 protein and mRNA were significantly decreased or down-regulated （P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the histopathological damage of the kidney in rats was improved in administration groups； the levels of 24 h-UTP， BUN， SCr， ALT and glycolipid indexes， the expressions of p53 protein and mRNA， as well as the expression of miR-214 were all significantly decreased or down-regulated， while ALB level， LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ， the expressions of LC3 mRNA， the expressions of ULK1 and Beclin-1 protein and mRNA were significantly increased or up-regulated （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS TG can alleviate renal damage in DN rats， and improve their liver and renal function， as well as glucose and lipid levels. These effects may be related to the regulation of the p53/miR-214/ULK1 axis and the restoration of cellular autophagy.

Objective:To explore the biomarkers associated with multiple myeloma in remission phase (MM-RP) in order to provide potential indicators for disease monitoring and prognostic evaluation.Methods:Bone marrow blood samples were prospectively collected from 9 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients and 9 MM-RP patients in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of Capital Medical University from January to October 2020. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was performed for proteomic analysis in 3 independent experiments, each containing 3 paired NDMM and MM-RP samples. Differentially expressed proteins (DEP) consistently identified across all 3 experiments were considered potential MM-RP biomarkers. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database were used for enrichment analyses of the biological functions of these potential biomarkers. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed using the STRING 11.5 database, and α-2-macroglobulin (α2M) was identified as a hub protein. The UCSC Xena database was utilized, and the overall survival (OS) of MM patients with high or low α2M expression [stratified by the average level of α2M transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) data] was analyzed by using Kaplan-Meier. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for age, International Staging System (ISS) stage and treatment regimen was employed to analyze the impact of α2M expression on OS of MM patients. The Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database was used to examine α2M mRNA expression patterns in 33 cancer types. The correlation of drug sensitivity [50% inhibiting concentration ( IC50)] with α2M expression was assessed using pharmacogenomic data from the GSCALite platform. Results:Among 104 proteins consistently identified in 3 proteomic experiments, 34 DEP were found between NDMM and MM-RP (∣fold change∣>1.0 and P < 0.05), including 25 upregulated DEP and 9 downregulated DEP in MM-RP. GO analysis showed that the identified MM-RP potential markers were mainly involved in biological processes such as complement activation and humoral immune response, and the molecular functions mainly involved serine hydrolase activity, serine peptidase activity, etc., and were mainly distributed in secretory granules, blood particles, and other parts; KEGG enrichment analysis showed that biomarkers were mainly enriched in the complement and coagulation cascade pathways. In the human α2M PPI network constructed using data from the STRING database, there were 10 proteins that interacted with α2M, with a connectivity of 7.82, and had direct interactions with 71% of the proteins in the network, the betweenness centrality value was 0.06, and the closeness centrality value was 1, indicating significant network centrality feature of α2M. In the constructed PPI network of α2M protein and DEP screened by proteomics, there were interactions between α2M protein and 11 MM-RP markers screened by proteomics, and the betweenness centrality value of α2M reached 0.50, the closeness centrality value was 0.67, indicating that α2M was at the core position of the PPI network. UCSC Xena analysis revealed that MM patients with low α2M expression (523 cases) had worse OS than those with high expression (336 cases) ( P =0.024). Multivariate Cox regression analysis confirmed that low α2M expression was an independent risk factor for poor OS (compared with high α2M expression: HR = 0.726, 95% CI: 0.550-0.960, P = 0.024). HPA database analysis demonstrated that the α2M expression levels were variable in different types of cancer, its level in glioblastoma multiforme, clear cell renal cell carcinoma, and stomach adenocarcinoma was higher than that in normal tissues (all P < 0.05), and its level in urothelial carcinoma, breast cancer and cervical squamous cell carcinoma was lower than that in normal tissues (all P < 0.05). GSCALite analysis revealed negative correlations between α2M expression level and IC50 values of B-Raf kinase inhibitors, B-Raf V600E inhibitors and dabrafenib mesylate. Conclusions:α2M expression level in MM-RP patients is lower than that in NDMM patients, and its expression level may be related to the prognosis of patients, which is expected to become a novel biomarker reflecting the disease activity of MM.

Objective To explore the application of case-based learning(CBL)approach in the basic medical stage for eight-year clinical medical program.Methods A total of 320 students from the eight-year clinical medicine pro-gram at Peking Union Medical College in the grades of 2014-2015 and 2019-2020 were selected as the study subjects.These students were divided into two groups,162 students in the classes of 2014 and 2015 as the control group,and 158 students in the classes of 2019 and 2020 as the experimental group.The students in the control group received classic teaching in the basic medicine stage characterized by traditional lectures as the main teaching method.The students in the experimental group received traditional lectures supplemented by CBL.In this study,the cardiovascular system was taken as an example,and the assessment scores and questionnaires of the two groups of students were collected in order to evaluate the teaching effectiveness and to obtain timely teaching feedback.Results Traditional lecture combined with CBL method significantly improved the theory assessment scores of students in the experimental group,stimulated learning interest and intrinsic motivation,and enhanced team learn-ing and problem-solving ability.Students believed that CBL teaching could effectively improve the ability to link theory to clinical practice.In addition,CBL teaching method encouraged the interaction between teachers and students and improved teaching efficiency.Conclusions Well-designing and well-organized CBL teaching from multiple levels,including teachers,students,and curricula,can be better accepted and acknowledged by students from eight-year clinical medical program at the stage of basic medical education.

Objective:Three occupational health risk assessment methods were used to assess the occupational health risk of noise exposed posts in an automobile manufacturing enterprise. According to the results, the selection of risk assessment methods and risk management of such occupational noise enterprises were provided.Methods:Form April to November 2021, The occupational health field survey was carried out in an automobile manufacturing industry in Tianjin. The occupational health MES risk assessment method, occupational health risk index risk assessment method and Australian occupational hazard risk assessment method were used to evaluate the occupational health risk of noise-exposed posts in this enterprise, and the evaluation results of different methods were analyzed and compared.Results:The average value of LAeq, 8 h in the four workshops of automobile manufacturing industry was 82.95 dB (A) , and the noise detection exceeding rate was 22.41% (26/116) . The LAeq, 8h and exceeding rate noise of welding workshop were higher than those of other workshops (χ 2=23.56, 32.94, P<0.01) . The three occupational health risk assessment methods have the same risk assessment results for the four major workshops. The assembly and painting workshops are level 4 risk (possible risk) , and the stamping and welding workshops are level 3 risk (significant risk) . Conclusion:Occupational noise has certain potential hazards to workers in automobile manufacturing enterprises. Therefore, in the future work, corresponding organizational management measures should be taken to improve the working environment and reduce the actual exposure level of workers in order to protect the health of occupational workers.

ObjectiveTo explore the establishment and evaluation methods of the rat model of acute myocardial infarction （AMI） in coronary heart disease with the syndrome of Qi and Yin deficiency by sleep deprivation （SD） combined with isoproterenol （ISO） and preliminarily explore its biological basis. MethodForty SD rats were assigned into normal （no treatment）， SD （treatment in modified multi-platform water environment for 96 h）， ISO （subcutaneous injection of ISO at 100 mg·kg^-1 once every other day for a total of 2 times）， and SD+ISO （injection of 100 mg·kg^-1 ISO after SD for 72 h and 96 h） groups. The cardiac function was detected by small animal echocardiography. The serum levels of creatine kinase （CK）， creatine kinase isoenzyme （CK-MB）， lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， and cardiac troponin T （cTnT） were measured by biochemical methods. The pathological changes of the myocardial tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The general state， body weight， grip strength， body temperature， behaviors in open field test， serum levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP）， cyclic guanosine monophosphate （cGMP）， cAMP/cGMP ratio， red （R）， green （G）， blue （B） values of the tongue surface， and pulse amplitude were observed and measured to evaluate the modeling results. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to determine the serum levels of interleukin-18 （IL-18）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， corticotropin-releasing factor （CRF）， adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH）， triiodothyronine （T3）， tetraiodothyronine （T4）， cluster of differentiation 4 （CD4）， and cluster of differentiation 8 （CD8）. ResultIn terms of disease indicators， the ISO and SD+ISO groups had lower cardiac function indicators than the normal group （P<0.01）. The levels of CK， CM-MB， LDH and cTnT elevated in each model group compared with the normal group （P<0.01）. The pathological changes of myocardial tissue were obvious in the ISO and SD+ISO groups. In terms of syndrome indicators， compared with the normal group， the SD and SD+ISO groups showed decreased body weight at each time point （P<0.01）， and the ISO group showed decreased body weight at the time points of 48 h and 72 h （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The paw temperature and rectal temperature increased in the SD group （P<0.01）. The model groups showed weakened grasp strength， lowered R， G， and B values of the tongue surface （P<0.01）， prolonged immobility time （P<0.01）， reduced total distance and number of entering the central area （P<0.01）， decreased average speed （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and increased cAMP and cGMP （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The cAMP/cGMP ratio was increased in the SD+ISO group （P<0.01）， and the pulse amplitude was decreased in the SD and SD+ISO groups （P<0.01）. In terms of serological indicators，compared with the normal group， the levels of IL-18， TNF-α， SOD and MDA were significantly increased in the ISO and SD+ISO groups （P<0.01）， the CRF， ACTH， CORT， T3， T4， CD4 and CD8 in the model groups were increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSleep deprivation for 96 h combined with high-dose ISO can successfully establish a rat model of acute myocardial infarction in coronary heart disease with the syndrome of Qi and Yin deficiency. The model evaluation system can be built with disease indicators of western medicine， histopathological indicators， macroscopic indicators of traditional Chinese medicine， and serological indicators.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired clonal hematopoietic stem cell disease caused by abnormal expression of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) on the cell membrane due to mutations in the phosphatidylinositol glycan class A(PIGA) gene. It is commonly characterized by intravascular hemolysis, repeated thrombosis, and bone marrow failure, as well as multiple systemic involvement symptoms such as renal dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, swallowing difficulties, chest pain, abdominal pain, and erectile dysfunction. Due to the rarity of PNH and its strong heterogeneity in clinical manifestations, multidisciplinary collaboration is often required for diagnosis and treatment. Peking Union Medical College Hospital, relying on the rare disease diagnosis and treatment platform, has invited multidisciplinary clinical experts to form a unified opinion on the diagnosis and treatment of PNH, and formulated the Expert Consensus of Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (2024), with the hope of promoting the standardization of PNH diagnosis and treatment.

Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is a common ocular surface disease.Severe LSCD can cause irreversible vision loss and the only effective treatment for severe LSCD is keratoplasty, which is limited by the number of donors.Exploring new effective treatments in lieu of keratoplasty remains a hot topic in current research.Since new treatments need to be critically evaluated in reliable animal models that reflect the pathological mechanisms of human LSCD, the establishment of an appropriate animal model is crucial in any experiment.Up to now, the main modeling methods for LSCD are mechanical method, thermal injury, chemical method, chemical method combined with surgery, and gene knock-down.Mechanical method is mature, reliable and widely used, but it can cause serious mechanical damage.Rotate burr tool could be the best mechanical method because of uniform damage and the small trauma, but it requires accumulation of experience.Cornea suffered from thermal injury performs stable, but the operation is complicated and uncontrollable.Chemical method is quick and simple, and the etiology is highly consistent with clinical cases, but the depth and extent of injury are uncontrollable.The chemical method combined with surgery could ensure the smoothness and flattening of the corneal surface, but the thickness of the central cornea and the limbus may be inconsistent, which affects neovascularization.The gene knockdown method is not widely used because of its complicated operations.Although there are different types of methods, the quality of modeling in different studies is not consistent.Therefore, selecting a reliable and efficient animal model of LSCD is not convenient for researchers.This review discussed current methods to establish LSCD model, including their advantages and disadvantages, therefore to provide inspiration for future model improvement.
