This article examines a comprehensive model for managing refractive errors, with a specific focus on myopia. It investigates the epidemiological context of refractive errors and their socio-economic implications. It underscores the importance of early detection and management, especially for severe ocular conditions like retinal lesions and glaucoma. The article critiques existing refractive error management models' limitations and highlights challenges in managing asymptomatic myopic patients. It proposes a “Myopia Chronic Disease Management(MCDM)” model as an innovative comprehensive management approach. The model establishes a data-driven closed-loop management pathway that encompasses screening, diagnosis, intervention, follow-up, and feedback. Through a comparative analysis with the chronic care model(CCM)and the World Health Organization's(WHO)Integrated Patient-Centered Eye Care(IPCEC), it highlights its innovative strengths in integrating digital technologies with multi-tiered healthcare networks. This model encompasses the entire refractive correction process and incorporates strategies for public education via the internet and new media. In terms of strategy implementation, the article discusses the necessity of establishing eye health records and long-term follow-up plans, as well as the potential applications of medical consortium models and family contract-based services in management. Moreover, the article emphasizes the importance of intelligent software systems in chronic ocular condition health management. It provides an overview of the benefits and challenges associated with this novel management model and proposes directions for future research and potential enhancements. Through this thorough examination and analysis, the article highlights the critical importance and effectiveness of implementing comprehensive, multifaceted, and sustained strategies in the management of refractive errors.

Arrhythmia is one of the most common diseases in clinical practice that can threaten the health and safety of patients and is referred to as "palpitations" in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine often uses the method of tonifying qi and nourishing yin to treat palpitations in clinical practice. However, there is currently a lack of relevant research on its treatment mechanism. From the perspective of pharmacology and through a literature search, this paper summarized the progress in the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine for supplementing qi and nourishing yin commonly used in the treatment of palpitations, as well as traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations for the treatment of arrhythmia, to explore their mechanism of action on palpitations. This paper also summarized that traditional Chinese medicine drugs for tonifying qi and nourishing yin mainly regulate various signal pathways and ion channels through multiple target genes, thereby regulating heart rhythm and improving clinical symptoms in patients with palpitations. The results can provide new ideas for colleagues on palpitations treatment.

Cancer cell membrane (CCM) derived nanotechnology functionalizes nanoparticles (NPs) to recognize homologous cells, exhibiting translational potential in accurate tumor therapy. However, these nanoplatforms are majorly generated from fixed cell lines and are typically evaluated in cell line-derived subcutaneous-xenografts (CDX), ignoring the tumor heterogeneity and differentiation from inter- and intra- individuals and microenvironments between heterotopic- and orthotopic-tumors, limiting the therapeutic efficiency of such nanoplatforms. Herein, various biomimetic nanoplatforms (CCM-modified gold@Carbon, i.e., Au@C-CCM) were fabricated by coating CCMs of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and patient-derived cells on the surface of Au@C NP. The generated Au@C-CCMs were evaluated on corresponding CDX, tongue orthotopic xenograft (TOX), immune-competent primary and distant tumor models, and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The Au@C-CCM generates a photothermal conversion efficiency up to 44.2% for primary HNSCC therapy and induced immunotherapy to inhibit metastasis via photothermal therapy-induced immunogenic cell death. The homologous CCM endowed the nanoplatforms with optimal targeting properties for the highest therapeutic efficiency, far above those with mismatched CCMs, resulting in distinct tumor ablation and tumor growth inhibition in all four models. This work reinforces the feasibility of biomimetic NPs combining modular designed CMs and functional cores for customized treatment of HNSCC, can be further extended to other malignant tumors therapy.
