ObjectiveTo construct a standardized diagnostic scale for Qi-Yin deficiency with blood stasis syndrome in diabetic macrovascular disease. MethodsLiterature related to Qi-Yin deficiency with blood stasis syndrome in diabetic macrovascular disease was retrieved from CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang databases. Diagnostic information from four diagnostic methods was extracted and standardized, with items having a frequency of ≥15 included in the item pool. A three-round Delphi expert consultation was conducted, screening items using support degree, mean score, rank sum, and coefficient of variation. Item weights were determined using analytic hierarchy process (AHP), gactor analysis (FA), and combined weighting method (CWM). The optimal weighting method was selected by comparing the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). The Youden index was calculated to establish the diagnostic cutoff value, which was proportionally scaled. ResultsA total of 102 studies were included. Thirty-five items were incorporated into the item pool. The authority coefficients for the three Delphi rounds were 0.82, 0.85, and 0.86, with coordination coefficients of 0.648, 0.538, and 0.506, respectively. Fifteen items were retained after screening. ROC curve analysis showed the AUC ranking as FA > CWM > AHP. The maximum Youden index was 0.814, corresponding to a diagnostic cutoff of 8.361 (scaled to 40 points). The final scale adopted a structured diagnostic framework: the symptom dimension requires at least 2 items, and the tongue or pulse dimension requires at least 1 category. ConclusionThis study developed a standardized diagnostic scale for Qi-Yin deficiency with blood stasis syndrome in diabetic macrovascular disease. Core items were screened via the Delphi method, with factor analysis identified as the optimal weighting method through AUC comparison. The diagnostic threshold (40 points) and structured diagnostic framework provide a quantitatively clear, clinically practical tool.

ObjectiveThis study focused on the marketed Chinese patent medicines for the treatment of Functional Diarrhea (FDr) in China and their prescription characteristics, in order to provide support for the clinical application and research and development of anti-FDr Chinese patent medicines. MethodsCollect the information of Chinese patent medicines that have been marketed to treat FDr, use Microsoft Excel 2021 software to conduct preliminary data collation and statistical analysis, and use the ancient and modern medical record cloud platform (V2.3.9) to analyze the standardized Chinese patent medicine prescriptions from the aspects of drug nature and taste, medication characteristics and prescription rules. Results147 kinds of FDr Chinese patent medicines were included in this study. There are a total of 40 varieties of FDr Chinese patent medicines suitable for children; The distribution of dosage forms is mainly pills, tablets, and capsules. 110 prescriptions were screened, among which the proportion of Chinese patent medicines for the treatment of spleen deficiency syndrome was the highest; The top three drug use frequency were licorice, Atractylodes macrocephala, and Poria cocos; The medicinal properties are mainly warm and flat, and the medicinal taste is mostly pungent, sweet and bitter, and most of them belong to the two meridians of the spleen and stomach; The association rules analysis obtains 20 strong association pairing sets; Three drug combinations were obtained by cluster analysis. ConclusionFDr Chinese patent medicine shows unique value in clinical application, especially in the field of children. However, there are still problems such as strong professionalism in the indication expression of drug instructions, limited coverage of the medical insurance catalog, and lack of high-level evidence-based medicine and pharmacoeconomic evidence. To this end, in the future, efforts should be made to build a multi-level evidence-based evidence system, improve medication compliance, and deepen research on syndrome-based medication laws, so as to enhance the clinical application value and scientific connotation of FDr Chinese patent medicines.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Three soil conditioners were prepared from granulated food waste and decomposed cattle manure combined with desulfurization gypsum, coal gangue, and maifanite, respectively. Field trials were conducted in the saline field growing Cabernet Sauvignon. The effects of soil conditioners on rhizospheric bacterial communities were studied, with the aim of providing a scientific basis for soil amelioration and restoration. Five treatments were designed, including the control (T1), conventional fertilization (T2), reduced chemical fertilization+organic matter-based soil conditioner with calcium additives (T3), reduced chemical fertilization+organic matter-based soil conditioner with silica additives (T4), and reduced chemical fertilization+organic matter-based soil conditioner with magnesium additives (T5), each with three replications. The results indicated that soil conditioners improved the rhizospheric nutrients, yield, and quality of grape (P<0.05), increased relative abundance of Proteobacteria by 17.32%-23.37%, decreased relative abundance of unidentified_Bacteria and Acidobacteriota by 4.22%-28.42% and 20.88%-35.81%, respectively. The bacterial community composition and diversity were different between treatments. Function analysis showed that the expression levels of the genes involved in chromosome and protein synthesis, mRNA biosynthesis, and glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism were up-regulated in the treatments with soil conditioners. The correlation analysis revealed that multiple environmental factors affected the alpha diversity of rhizospheric bacterial communities, and some bacterial taxa were closely related to the grape yield and quality. It is concluded that soil conditioners can effectively alter rhizosphere nutrient levels and bacterial community structures and functions. T5 treatment outperforms other treatments in improving the physico-chemical and biological characteristics of rhizosphere, and the yield, and quality of grape. It has potential for application, and provides an important basis for development of new-type soil conditioners.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors for the progression of severe scrub typhus in children.Methods:Clinical data, laboratory and auxiliary examination results, treatment and prognosis data of children with scrub typhus admitted to Xiamen Children's Hospital from July 2014 to March 2024 were collected. The clinical characteristics of scrub typhus in children were analyzed, and the study subjects were divided into severe group and mild group according to their condition. The relevant risk factors for progression to severe cases were analyzed.Results:A total of 42 cases were included, with 34 cases (80.95%) in the mild group and 8 cases (19.05%) in the severe group. All patients(100%) had fever, with the highest incidence of eschar or ulceration (95.24%), followed by lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. All 42 patients improved or recovered after treatment with azithromycin or doxycycline, with no deaths reported. Compared with the mild group,the severe group had a higher incidence of cough, lymphadenopathy,and hepatomegaly, with statistically significant differences( P<0.05). Compared with the mild group, the severe group showed a decrease in hemoglobin(Hb), platelet, and fibrinogen(Fib) levels, while serum C-reactive protein(CRP), procalcitonin, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase MB, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels increased, with statistically significant differences( P<0.05). Multivariate Tobit model analysis showed that a decrease in Hb ( OR -0.006,95% CI -0.012-0.000, P<0.05), an increase in CRP ( OR 2.72,95% CI 0.001-0.008, P=0.010), an increase in LDH ( OR 1.76,95% CI 0.000-0.000, P=0.027), and a decrease in Fib ( OR -3.78,95% CI -0.309-0.093, P=0.001) were risk factors for scrub typhus progressing to severe cases. Conclusion:During the epidemic season of scrub typhus, fever accompanied by eschar or ulceration, along with splenomegaly and lymphadenopath aids in the diagnosis of scrub typhus. Decreased Hb and Fib, as well as elevated CRP and LDH, are risk factors for the development of severe scrub typhus in children.
