In the context of the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， the inheritance of the experiences of famous doctors faces significant challenges due to its complex nonlinear characteristics and dynamic evolution. There are still issues in the current inheritance system， such as the homogenization of talent cultivation models， lack of standardized mentoring practices， and monotonous evaluation method， which hinder the systematic inheritance and innovative development of famous doctors' experiences. Based on a systematic review of the current state of artificial intelligence （AI）-assisted inheritance of famous doctors' experiences， this study explores innovative pathways for deep integration of modern information technologies with famous doctors' experiences from key dimensions， including data authenticity assurance， interdisciplinary collaboration mechanisms， and the establishment of dynamic inheritance standards. It proposes a paradigm shift in the inheritance of TCM famous doctors' experiences in the AI era， aiming to build a new TCM inheritance system of "digital intelligence empowerment and cross-disciplinary innovation"， providing theoretical support and practical pathways for the inheritance of famous doctors' experiences in TCM.

BACKGROUND:Monounsaturated fatty acids are mostly recognized as a fatty acid with beneficial effects on human health,and some studies have suggested that they may contribute to non-inflammatory pain at multiple sites in the body.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of monounsaturated fatty acids on the incidence of low back pain and all-cause mortality,thereby providing potential biomarkers and intervention strategies for low back pain management and prevention.METHODS:A Mendelian randomization method was used to analyze the potential association of monounsaturated fatty acids on the incidence of low back pain and all-cause mortality in conjunction with large sample data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES)database.Results were validated and sensitivity analyzed using multiple statistical models(e.g.,inverse variance weighting,MR-Egger regression,simple median,weighted median,and weighted median)to enhance the reliability of causal inferences.In the NHANES study,multivariate Cox proportional risk regression models were used to assess the independent predictive values of different fatty acid ratios and to control for confounders.Potential nonlinear relationships between monounsaturated fatty acids and all-cause mortality were assessed using Kaplan-Meier curves,log-rank tests,and restricted cubic spline curves.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Elevated monounsaturated fatty acids have been found to be associated with a significantly higher risk of low back pain,suggesting an unfavorable effect of this fatty acid.Also,monounsaturated fatty acids may increase all-cause mortality in patients with low back pain.This provides new insights into the potential effects of monounsaturated fatty acids on low back pain and all-cause mortality,and provides a scientific basis for nutritional interventions for low back pain.The results support the use of dietary modification as one of the strategies for the prevention and management of low back pain in the European population,but further studies are needed to explore the specific biological mechanisms and potential for clinical application,thereby improving guidance for the prevention and treatment of diseases in China.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect on functional dyspepsia differentiated as liver-stomach disharmony treated with acupoint application of Chinese herbal medicine and wax therapy on the basis of Professor TIAN Conghuo's theory, "regulating qi movement". METHODS: A total of 120 patients with functional dyspepsia of liver-stomach disharmony were randomly assigned to a combined therapy group (30 cases, 1 case dropped out), an acupoint application group (30 cases, 1 case dropped out), a wax therapy group (30 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a basic therapy group (30 cases, 2 cases dropped out). In the basic therapy group, omeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets were administered orally, 20 mg each time, once daily. Besides the treatment as the basic therapy group, the Chinese herbal acupoint application was used at Zhongwan (CV12) and Shenque (CV8) in the acupoint application group, and remained for 4 h in each intervention; and in the wax therapy group, wax therapy was delivered at the sites of Zhongwan (CV12) and Shenque (CV8) of the abdominal region and remained for 20 min in each intervention; and in the combined therapy group, the acupoint application was combined with wax therapy, administered once every other day or every two days, 3 times weekly. The duration of treatment was 4 weeks in the four groups. Before and after treatment, the score of main symptoms, the score of 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36) and the score of liver-stomach disharmony pattern were observed; and the clinical effect was evaluated in the four groups. RESULTS: After treatment, regarding main symptoms and liver-stomach disharmony pattern, the score of every item was lower than that before treatment in the 4 groups (P<0.01). The score for each dimension in SF-36 was higher than that before treatment in the combined therapy group and the acupoint application group (P<0.01, P<0.05). In the wax therapy group, the scores for physiological activities, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social activities and mental health in SF-36 were higher than those before treatment (P<0.01, P<0.05). In the basic therapy group, the scores for physiological performance, bodily pain, general health and mental health in SF-36 were higher than those before treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01). After treatment, in the combined therapy group, the score for gastric distension and discomforts was lower than those of the basic therapy group and the wax therapy group (P<0.01), and the scores for gastric fullness in the morning, pain in the upper abdominal region and burning sensation in the upper abdominal region, as well as the score for liver-stomach disharmony pattern were lower than those in the rest 3 groups (P<0.01, P<0.05). In the combined therapy group, the scores for physiological activities, physiological performance, and bodily pain were higher than those of the basic therapy group (P<0.01, P<0.05), the scores for physiological activities and bodily pain were higher when compared with those in the acupoint application group (P<0.01, P<0.05) and the scores for physiological activities and vitality were higher when compared with those in the wax therapy group (P<0.05). After treatment, the score for each item of main symptoms, the score for liver-stomach disharmony pattern in the acupoint application group, and the score for liver-stomach disharmony pattern in the wax therapy group were all lower in comparison with those in the basic therapy group (P<0.01, P<0.05). The total effective rates was 93.3% (28/30), 73.3% (22/30), 66.7% (20/30) and 50.0% (15/30) in the combined therapy group, the acupoint application group, the wax therapy group and the basic therapy group, respectively; and the total effective rate in the combined therapy group was superior to the other 3 groups (P<0.01); the total effective rates in the acupoint application group and the wax therapy group were higher than that in the basic therapy group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION The combination of acupoint application with Chinese herbal medicine and wax therapy, based on Professor TIAN Conghuo's theory of "regulating qi movement", can effectively treat functional dyspepsia, alleviate main symptoms and improve the quality of life in the patients.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)is a malignant lesion originating from the oral mucosal squamous epithelium,account-ing for over 80％of oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Key etiological factors include tobacco,alcohol abuse,and betel quid chewing.In China,its incidence has shown an overall upward trend,posing a significant threat to public health.OSCC exhibits high local invasive-ness,making early diagnosis critical for improving prognosis.Its clinical management requires close multidisciplinary collaboration among oral and maxillofacial surgery,head and neck surgery,radiation oncology,medical oncology,reconstructive surgery,radiology,patholo-gy,and nutritional support teams.Given the increasing disease burden of OSCC and rapid development of multidisciplinary collaborative models,an expert panel has formulated this integrated management consensus based on evidence-based medicine and extensive deliber-ation.Centered on the'Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-Treatment-Rehabilitation'framework,the consensus provides comprehensive guidance for the entire disease course of OSCC patients,aiming to standardize clinical practice.

Objective To compare the short-term outcomes and long-term prognosis between laparoscopic and open surgery for large gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs).Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 110 patients with large gastric GISTs who underwent surgical treatment in the medical department of general surgery,Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital,from January 2015 to December 2020.Among them,47 were males(42.73%)and 63 were females(57.28%),with a median age of 55 years.Patients were divided into the open surgery group(n=57)and the laparoscopic surgery group(n=53)based on the surgical approach.Pro-pensity score matching(PSM)was performed using a 1∶1 nearest-neighbor matching method,resulting in 34 patients in each group after matching.Short-term outcomes and long-term prognosis were compared between the two groups.Results After matching,the laparoscop-ic surgery group showed significantly better outcomes than the open surgery group in terms of drainage tube removal time,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative hospital stay(all P<0.05).No significant differences were observed in nasogastric tube removal time,time to first flatus,or time to resuming oral intake(all P>0.05).The open surgery group had lower hospitalization cost compared to the laparoscopic surgery group(P<0.05).Regarding long-term survival,the 1-,3-,and 5-year disease-free survival(DFS)rates in the lapa-roscopic surgery group were 100%,88.1%,and 88.1%,respectively,while those in the open surgery group were 100%,94.1%,and 94.1%.The 1-,3-,and 5-year overall survival(OS)rates in the laparoscopic surgery group were 100%,100%,and 88.8%,respectively,compared to 100%,97.1%,and 94.7%in the open surgery group.No statistically significant differences were found in DFS and OS between the two groups(both P>0.05).Conclusions Laparoscopic resection of large gastric GISTs is safe and feasible,without increasing the risk of tumor recurrence,and achieves comparable efficacy to open surgery.However,its application should still be approached with caution.

Objective To retrospective analysis summarized the effectiveness and safety of the"triple"conversion therapy regimen combining immune,targeted and local therapy.Methods From February 2019 to June 2023,52 patients with advanced liver cancer from February 2019 to June 2023 in XI,an Jiao Tong university medicine college affiliated 3201 hospital were admitted and received conversion treatment regimens combining sintilimab with bevacizumab and combined with local treatment,analyzed the surgical resection rate and pathological complete response rate(pCR),complete response rate(CR),partial response rate(PR),progression of disease(PD),stable disease(SD),objective response rate(ORR)and disease control rate(DCR).To evaluated the effect of conversion therapy and adverse reactions.Results 21 cases had recived operative resection in the 52 patients with primary liver cancer receiving sintilimab and bevacizumab.The postoperative resection rate was 40.4％(21/52),pCR 42.9％(9/21).The other 31 cases have complete response 5.8％(3/52),PR 25.0％(13/52),PD 11.5％(6/52),SD 17.3％(9/52).The overall objective response rate(ORR)was71.2％(37/52),and the disease control rate(DCR)was 88.5％(46/52).Adverse reactions manifest as Grade 1-2 skin-related damage primarily affecting the epidermis.Conclusions For patients with potentially resectable primary liver cancer in middle and advanced stage,the"triple"conversion therapy with sintilimab combined with bevacizumab as systematic treatment and combined with local therapy can achieve good conversion treatment effect with controllable safety.

Objective:To explore the relationship between urinary cadmium levels and thyroid hormone levels in people aged 40-89 years old in selected areas of China.Methods:Based on the "Investigation of the Impact of Soil Quality of Agricultural Land on Human Health in Typical Areas" project from October 2019 to August 2020, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was used to include 6 588 middle-aged and older adults aged 40-89. Demographic characteristics, dietary frequency and disease status were collected through the questionnaire and physical examination. Urinary cadmium and urinary creatinine were detected by random midstream urine. Fasting venous blood was collected for the detection of Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4). The linear mixed effects model was used to explore the association of urine cadmium levels with thyroid hormone levels. Its dose-response relationship was explored by using the restricted cubic spline.Results:The age of the subjects was (63.48±12.18) years, with males accounting for 51.28%. The M ( Q 1,Q 3) of urinary cadmium level, T3 and T4 was 2.48 (1.36, 4.42) μg/g·creatinine, (1.96±0.51) nmol/L and (113.75±29.11) nmol/L, respectively. The linear mixed effects model showed that the changes of T3 and T4 were 0.027 (0.009, 0.044) nmol/L and 2.019 (1.084, 2.953) nmol/L for each one-unit increase (natural logarithm transformed) of urinary cadmium. The restricted cubic spline showed that there was a positive nonlinear association between urinary cadmium and T3 as well as T4 (all Pnonlinear<0.05). Conclusion:In selected areas of China, the urinary cadmium level of middle-aged and older adults aged 40-89 years is positively associated with T3 and T4.

Objective:To investigate the influence of genetic and environmental factors on the clinical characteristics of upper urinary tract calculi in pediatric patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective case series. The clinical data of 179 children under the age of 14 with upper urinary tract calculi treated at Beijing Friendship Hospital，Capital Medical University，from August 2014 to February 2023 were analyzed. There were 121 males（67.60%）and 58 females（32.40%），with a median age at onset of 2.10（1.14，5.17）years. Thirty-three cases（18.44%）had a family history of urinary stone disease. Stone characteristics was defined by CT，with a median stone burden（sum of the diameters of all stones）of 1.3（1.00，1.60）cm. Fifty-four（30.17%）children had staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were present in 92 cases（51.40%），and bilateral stones in 52 cases（29.05%），with hydronephrosis was present in 119 children（66.48%）. The median follow-up time was 67 months，and 36 children（20.11%）experienced stone recurrence. Dietary habits and related information were collected by electronic questionnaire，including a total of 115 children（64.25%）with an unbalanced diet，101（56.42%）with insufficient water intake，and 32 children（17.88%）with a preference for a high-protein diet. Tap water was used as the source of drinking water by 128 patients（71.51%），and 107（59.78%）took dietary supplements. Whole-exome sequencing revealed that 55 children（30.73%）carried pathogenic mutations in stone-related genes. Binary logistic regression was used for univariate analysis of above risk factors. Variables with P < 0.1 in univariate analysis and without multicollinearity were included in multivariate logistic regression to further screen for independent risk factors. Results:Multivariate analysis confirmed that carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.06，95% CI 1.25?7.45， P = 0.014）and insufficient water intake（ OR = 3.28，95% CI 1.14?9.47， P = 0.028）were independent risk factors for higher stone burden. A high-protein diet（ OR = 2.40，95% CI 1.03?5.63， P = 0.044），carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 4.57，95% CI 2.21?9.46， P<0.01），and a family history of stones（ OR = 3.18，95% CI 1.28 ~ 7.91， P = 0.013）were independent risk factors for staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were closely associated with a family history of stones（ OR = 2.66，95% CI 1.15-6.17， P = 0.022）and carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.22，95% CI 1.60-6.48， P = 0.001）. Moreover，carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 5.19，95% CI 2.52?13.82， P < 0.01）were an independent risk factor for stone recurrence，whereas dietary supplement intake was a protective factor（ OR = 0.26，95% CI 0.11?0.62， P = 0.002）. Conclusions:Genetic and environmental factors play significant roles in the occurrence and development of pediatric upper urinary tract stones. A high-protein diet as well as a positive family history of stones are independent risk factors for staghorn calculi，and insufficient water intake is a critical environmental factor for stone formation，while appropriate use of dietary supplements may help reduce the risk of stone recurrence. Genetic testing indicates that approximately 30% of children carry stone-related pathogenic gene mutations，and these patients prone to severe stone and an increased risk of recurrence.

Objective:To evaluate the levels and source of cadmium exposure by dietary pathway among middle-aged and elderly people ≥40 in cadmium-contaminated areas of China.Methods:A total of 7 193 people aged 40-89 years from four typical cadmium-contaminated areas in China were selected as the study subjects. Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), Total Diet Study (TDS) and a 3-day-24-hour dietary recall survey were conducted. Dietary cadmium intake and food sources through dietary pathways were assessed based on cadmium content in foods, consumption amounts and intake frequencies.Results:The mean age of the participants was 63.39±12.21 years, with 50.05% being males. The average monthly dietary cadmium intake was 7.39 μg/(kg·BW). Staple foods and vegetables were the primary sources of dietary cadmium intake, accounting for 57.51% and 32.48%, respectively. The monthly dietary cadmium intake in all surveyed regions did not exceed the Provisional Tolerable Monthly Intake (PTMI) recommended by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA).Conclusion:The monthly dietary cadmium intake among middle-aged and elderly people in cadmium-contaminated areas of China is relatively low, with the risk remaining at an acceptable level. Staple foods and vegetables are the most significant contributors to dietary cadmium intake.

A throat swab sample from a pediatric case in Tongzhou District, Beijing was identified as enterovirus; the patient was a 1-year-and-8-month-old male sporadic case. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a viral genome length of 7 436 bp. BLAST alignment confirmed the serotype as EV-D68. Phylogenetic analysis of the whole genome indicated that this strain belongs to the B3 clade, showing closer genetic proximity to the 2018 Shanghai strain MW697453 with 99.53% whole-genome nucleotide homology. Genetic and amino acid variation analysis demonstrated that the B3 subclade to which this strain belongs exhibits a nucleotide deletion at positions 718–726, differing from deletion sites observed in other B3 clade strains. A key neuropathogenic amino acid site, T650A, was found to have undergone mutation. Recombination analysis confirmed no cross-clade recombination events in this strain. This study conducted genetic characterization of the strain's evolutionary relationship with EV-D68 strains from different regions and years in China, providing data support for formulating prevention and control measures against EV-D68 infection.
