Liumotang comes from the Yuan dynasty's Effective Prescription Handed Down for Generations of Physicians. It is composed of six medicinal materials： Arecae Semen， Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum， Aucklandiae Radix， Linderae Radix， Rhei Radix et Rhizoma， and Aurantii Fructus. It is a classical formula for treating abdominal pain due to Qi stagnation and constipation accompanied by heat. This study systematically collated the records of Liumotang in ancient medical books and modern clinical literature and conducted in-depth analysis and textual research on its formula source， main diseases， composition， dosage， medical books， container capacity， processing， preparation method， usage， drug basis， formula meaning， and other key information， so as to provide a powerful reference for the development and clinical application of compound preparations of the classical formula Liumotang. The results show that Liumotang was first seen in Effective Prescription Handed Down for Generations of Physicians， and many medical books of the past dynasties have imitated this. In terms of drug basis， the dried and mature seeds of the palm plant Areca catechu， resin-containing wood of the Daphneaceae plant Aquilaria sinensis， the dried roots of the Asteraceae plant woody Aucklandia lappa， the dried tuber root of the Lauraceae plant Lindera aggregata， the dried roots and rhizomes of the knotweed plant， R. palmatum， R.tangutikum， and R. officinale， and the dried and unripe fruits of the citrus genus C. aurantium and its cultivated varieties from the family Rutaceae were selected. In terms of dosage， through the textual research on bowls in the Ming and Qing dynasties， combined with the conversion of medicines and bowl capacity in the Qing dynasty， it was estimated that the dosage of each drug in the Yuan dynasty was 10.86 g. In the Ming and Qing dynasties， the dosage of drugs was mostly equal， but the dosage of drugs was somewhat different. In terms of processing， preparation method， and usage， in the medical books of the past dynasties， the processing of drugs has slightly changed， but raw drugs are used in all preparations. The preparation method and usage did not change much during the Yuan， Ming， and Qing dynasties， except for certain differences in dosage. In terms of syndrome， Liumotang was first used to treat abdominal pain due to Qi stagnation and constipation accompanied by heat. Medical books of the past dynasties often omit the symptoms of heat. In modern clinical practice， Liumotang is mainly used in the digestive system and urinary system diseases and is mostly used to treat constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome， biliary reflux gastritis， functional constipation， slow transit constipation， and other diseases， with no adverse reactions found yet. The above results provide a reliable scientific basis for the development and clinical treatment of Liumotang compound preparations.

This review described the potential health threats to the cardiovascular system from micro-nano plastics (MNPs) and their multifaceted toxicity mechanisms. The article reviewed the environmental distribution of MNPs, exposure pathways, and their toxic effects on the cardiovascular system, and summarized the specific mechanisms of MNPs involving oxidative stress, inflammatory response, mitochondrial damage, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy dysregulation. Meanwhile, the combined toxic effects of MNPs with other environmental pollutants (e.g., heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), including synergistic, antagonistic, and dual effects, were analyzed, and the potential risks of MNPs as carriers of microorganisms and toxic chemicals were pointed out. The widespread presence of MNPs and their complex toxicity mechanisms may make them important triggers for cardiovascular diseases, but current research still suffers from unbalanced studies across environmental systems, incomplete understanding of plastic properties, and limited knowledge of long-term biological effects. Future research should focus on the long-term effects of MNPs, the joint toxicity mechanisms with other pollutants, and the differential effects across population subgroups. It is suggested to accelerate plastic recycling technology innovation, promote biodegradable materials, and optimize waste treatment process to mitigate the potential threat of MNPs pollution to human health. Through multidisciplinary collaboration and in-depth research, combining innovative concepts from toxicology, public health policy, and environmental science, it is expected to provide new methods and approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases associated with MNPs.

Objective:We aimed to develop a novel visualized model based on nomogram to predict postoperative overall survival.Methods:This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study, including participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery from 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Baseline characteristics, histopathological data and nutritional status, as assessed using Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment, were collected. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and Cox regression were used to identify variables to be included in the predictive model. Internal and external validations were performed.Results:There were 681 and 127 patients in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. A total of 188 deaths were observed over a median follow-up period of 59 (range: 58 to 60) months. Two independent predictors of NRS 2002 and Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage were identified and incorporated into the prediction nomogram model together with the factor of age. The model's concordance index for 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival was 0.696, 0.724, and 0.738 in the training cohort and 0.801, 0.812, and 0.793 in the validation cohort, respectively.Conclusions:In this study, a new nomogram prediction model based on NRS 2002 score was developed and validated for predicting the overall postoperative survival of patients with gastric colorectal cancer. This model has good differentiation, calibration and clinical practicability in predicting the long-term survival rate of patients with gastrointestinal cancer after radical surgery.

Objective:To systematically retrieve, evaluate, and summarize evidence on insomnia screening and assessment in adult malignant tumor patients.Methods:The clinical decisions, guidelines, and expert consensus on screening and assessing insomnia in malignant tumor patients were systematically searched in clinical decision support systems, guideline websites, literature databases, and professional association websites. This study conducted methodological quality evaluation and evidence extraction, translation, and integration.Results:A total of 8 articles were included, including three clinical decisions, two evidence-based guidelines, and three expert consensuses. After extracting and summarizing evidence, 38 pieces of evidence were obtained from three aspects of general management principles, insomnia screening, and insomnia assessment.Conclusions:The insomnia screening and assessment in adult malignant tumor patients should be standardized according to evidence-based standards and combined with specific clinical situations in China.

Objective:To comprehensively search and summarize the evidence on critical ultrasound nursing practice training courses, with the aim of providing a basis for critical ultrasound nursing practice training.Methods:Taking the evidence-based clinical translation model of Fudan University Centre for Evidence-based Nursing as the theoretical framework, the evidence was retrieved, evaluated, and summarized to determine the evidence to be introduced into clinical practice, forming a training program for critical ultrasound nursing practice. From July to August 2023, 25 experts from 10 provinces/municipalities across the country were selected for two rounds of consultation to determine the practical training course system for critical ultrasound nursing.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, including one clinical decision, nine expert consensus, and four systematic reviews. In the two rounds of consultation, the positive coefficients of experts were 90.0% (27/30) and 92.6% (25/27), the authority coefficients of experts were 0.956 and 0.964, and the coefficients of Kendall's harmony were 0.303 and 0.350 ( P<0.01), respectively. The final practical training course system for critical ultrasound nursing included five first-level indicators, 25 second-level indicators, and 67 third-level indicators. Conclusions:Ultrasound examination is a complex skill. The construction method of the practical training course system for critical ultrasound nursing is scientific, reasonable, with strong practicality in content, which can provide reference for the development and evaluation of critical ultrasound nursing training courses.

Glioma is the most common primary tumor of the brain,accounting for 81%of central nervous system(CNS)malignant tumors.The degree of malignancy is high,and the current treatment methods are limited.In recent years,with the in-depth study of intestinal flora and brain-gut axis,it has been found that the diversity of gut microbiota plays an important role in the regulation of glioma.The mechanism is that the intestinal flora affects the development of glioma through the role of immune regulation and metabolites.In addition,it has been con-firmed that there is a certain correlation between some probiotics and glioma,which provides a new application prospect for the treatment of glioma.This paper discusses the main intestinal bacteria that regulate gliomas as well as the role and regulatory mechanisms of intestinal flora in the development of gliomas,and provides ideas for the discovery of new targets for glioma treatment and further improvement of treatment options.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effects of Yufu ointment for acute radiation-induced skin injury. Methods:We enrolled a total of 104 patients with malignant tumors who developed acute skin injury of grade 2-3 during or after the first course of radiotherapy from June 2019 to February 2023. The observation group ( n=53) and control group ( n=51) received external application of Yufu ointment and Shirun Shaoshang ointment, respectively. We recorded the changes in the grade of skin injury and associated symptoms (such as pain, itching, and burning sensation) and healing speed and time for the two groups. Results:A total of 102 patients completed the study, with 53 cases in the observation group and 49 cases in the control group. The incidence rate of moisture skin lesions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (62.26% vs. 83.67%, P<0.05). The healing speed of moisture skin ulcerations was significantly faster in the observation group than in the control group (1.67 cm 2/d vs. 0.55 cm 2/d, P<0.05). The observation group had a significantly shorter time to skin injury healing than the control group (10.40 d vs. 14.41 d, P<0.05), significantly different for skin injury of grade 2 (10.21 d vs. 17.57 d, P<0.05) but not for skin injury of grades 2.5 and 3 ( P>0.05). Regarding clinical symptoms, both groups experienced significant reductions in pain and burning sensation scores after treatment ( P<0.05); the grade of itching was significantly decreased for the observation group ( P<0.05), but had no significant change for the control group after treatment ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Yufu ointment can significantly alleviate secondary damage for patients with acute radiation-induced skin injury, by accelerating the healing process and relieving symptoms such as pain, itching, and burning sensation with good tolerability, which deserves further promotion.

AIM: To investigate the effect of residual astigmatism on visual quality after phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in patients with age-related cataract, and to evaluate the astigmatism inclusivity of regional refractive IOL.METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 62 cases(73 eyes)of age-related cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive IOL(Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15)implantation from July 2020 to March 2022 at the ophthalmology department of our hospital were collected. They were grouped according to residual astigmatism at 6 mo postoperatively, taking 35 cases(40 eyes)with residual astigmatism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D as the experimental group, and 27 cases(33 eyes)with residual astigmatism ≤0.75 D as the control group. Visual acuity, defocus curves, objective visual acuity [wavefront aberrations, Strehl ratio(SR), modulation transfer functions(MTF)], subjective visual acuity(national eye institute visual function questionnaire-25), patients' satisfaction, and spectacle independence were compared between the two groups at 6 mo postoperatively.RESULTS:There was a difference in the preoperative astigmatism and the number of postoperative 6 mo residual astigmatism between the two groups(P<0.01). At 6 mo postoperatively, there was no difference in uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity, objective visual quality, subjective visual quality, satisfaction, and spectacle independence between the two groups(P>0.05). The defocus curves showed that there was no difference in visual acuity between the two groups at all points in the +2.00 to -4.00 D defocus range of the additional spherical equivalent(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL was able to accommodate regular astigmatism of 1.50 D.

Objective To investigate the effect of residual corneal astigmatism on visual acuity after regional refrac-tive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted.The medical records and follow-up data of 73 eyes of 57 cataract patients who underwent ultrasound emulsification cataract extraction combined with LENTIS Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL implantation in the Ophthalmology Department of the Hebei General Hospital from June 2020 to March 2022 were collected.These patients were grouped according to postoperative residual corneal astigmatism:32 patients(40 eyes)with a residual corneal astigmatism of 0.75(exclusive)-1.50 D were taken as the experimental group,and 25 patients(33 eyes)with a residual corneal astigmatism ≤0.75 D were taken as the control group.The uncor-rected distance visual acuity(5 m),uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(80 cm),uncorrected near visual acuity(40 cm),out-of-focus curve,objective visual quality,subjective visual quality,satisfaction degree and lens removal rate of pa-tients in the two groups were recorded 6 months postoperatively.Results The postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.10(0.00,0.22),the uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.00(0.00,0.10),and the uncorrected near visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.20(0.10,0.30)and 0.20(0.10,0.20)in the experimental and control groups,with no statistically significant differences(all P＞0.05).The postoperative out-of-focus curves showed that the distance visual acuity of patients with additional spherical equivalent refraction ranged from+2.00 D to-4.00 D in the two groups had no statistically significant difference(all P＞0.05).There were statistically significant differences in to-tal aberration,coma aberration,modulation transfer function and Strehl ratio in the objective visual quality of patients after surgery(all P＜0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference in the total higher-order aberration,spherical ab-erration and cloverleaf aberration(all P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the subjective visual quality,satisfaction degree and lens removal rate in the two groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Residual corneal astig-matism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D after LENTIS Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL implantation has no effect on higher-order aberration,spherical aberration,and cloverleaf aberration in subjective and objective visual quality,and has an impact on total aberra-tion,coma aberration,modulation transfer function and Strehl ratio in objective visual quality.
